5. Duplex Unit (C5650dn)
6. Rear Stacker (face up)
Capacity 100 sheets
When the rear paper stacker is folded down, paper exits the printer through the rear of the printer and is stacked face up.
This is used for labels, heavy print media, envelopes and custom paper sizes.
When used with the Multi-Purpose Tray, the paper path through the printer is essentially straight. This avoids bending the print media around curves in the paper path and makes paper feeding more reliable.

Paper (Print Media)

General Information _____________________
CAUTION!
Print media must be able to withstand 446°F (230°C) for 0.2 second.
You need to know three characteristics about any paper (print media) you want to use with your printer:
Type
Weight
Size
The type, weight, and size of the paper (print media) determine:
which paper feed tray can be used
Choices are multipurpose tray (MP Tray/manual feed) or Trays 1 - 2
which paper exit path can be used
Choices are face-down or face-up (straight-through)
whether you can use double sided (duplex) printing
For type, see
Paper: US Bond (Metric): see page 16
Paper: Index: see page 18
Letterhead: see page 20
Envelopes: see page 24
Transparencies: see page 29
Labels: see page 26
For weight, refer to the correct paper type. Each paper type has a table (matrix) of paper size, paper weight, paper feed, paper exit, simplex/duplex correlations.
For general information on paper sizes, see “Paper Size, Feed, and Exit” on page 35.

Recommendations

Check www.okiprintingsolutions.com for the latest
information on recommended papers for your printer.
Paper should be stored flat, away from moisture, direct
sunlight and heat sources.
The use of heavily laid or textured paper will
seriously affect the life of the image drum and give poor print quality. Print quality can be improved by
changing the media setting to ‘Ultra Heavy.’ However, this will reduce the output speed and prevent the use of the duplex option.
Avoid:
– Damp, damaged or curled paper.
– Very smooth, shiny or glossy paper.
– Heavily embossed letterhead paper, very rough paper
or paper that has a large grain difference between the
two sides. – Paper with perforations, cut-outs or ragged edges. – Carbon paper, recycled paper, NCR paper,
photosensitive paper, pressure sensitive paper or
thermal transfer paper.
